Roguewave F1 - Brushed RTR

The new Roguewave is perfect for the lake or pool, and features a self-righting design so you don't have to chase down a flipped boat!

A 10" Self-Righting Tunnel Hull

The new Revolution Roguewave F1 is hitting the shelves just in time for the upcoming lake season. This 10" self-righting RTR boat is shaped like an F1 tunnel hull and features an inboard-mounted brushed 380-sized motor with watercooling coils. It comes with an integrated ESC/receiver combo, and a 7.4 360 mAh LiIon. Here's what Horizon Hobby says about this new mini boat:

The Revolution® Roguewave™ 10-inch self-righting F1 tunnel hull is a quick, nimble and durable electric boat that is perfect for pools or small ponds, and Ready-To-Run right out of the box. The impact resistant hull houses waterproof electronics like the speed control, steering servo and 2.4GHz receiver while the rechargeable battery offers zippy performance and good run times. But the awesome benefit of this boat is that you'll never have to worry about capsizing. The Roguewave tunnel hull is designed with self-righting capability so it always flips upright no matter how much wake you make.

Everything Included
The Roguewave F1 Tunnel Hull is factory assembled and Ready-To-Run, right out of the box. Inside the box you will find a 2.4GHz transmitter that features proportional control and control trims. The Lithium-Ion boat battery offers good run times and is rechargeable with the included USB charger that works conveniently with any standard USB port. There's nothing extra you need to buy. Even the AA batteries for the transmitter are included.

Easy and Durable
The Roguewave F1 Tunnel Hull is perfect for any beginner who wants a great start in the world of RC boating. The easy-to-drive design is complemented with confidence inspiring self-righting capability that helps keep the boat upright, even if it capsizes. The impact-resistant hull makes bumps and crashes uneventful, while waterproof electronics let you splash away worry-free.

If I had a swimming pool, maybe. They feel too slow on lakes and large ponds. I have a monohull of similar size I use to run in the ponds at Intuit's headquarters, until the guard kicked us out one day...

I don't mind running them in the lake as I don't have to worry about banging it into the side of a pool. Speaking of which, I am a pool route technician. I wonder if a customer would mind if I tossed one in their pool for a quick run!!!

These boats are now available and they look great. I grabbed 2 of them. They come in orange and white. With both boats, the hulls are black and the canopy is either orange or white. They also have a flood chamber in the left sponson to aid in self righting. No need to cycle forward and backward with the throttle to self right these.
